Add a new subrule to the rule “The Government”. Call it “Public Servants” and give it the following text:

The Government is considered to be a Player for the purpose of the rule “Employment”, except that “Sovereign” is a legal value for its Employment. For the purpose of the rules “Full Employment” and “Synergy” only, Players Employed by the Government are considered to be Employed by all Players except themselves.

Still bitter, but resentfully

meh. I’d rather “The Third Way” pass.

The two aren’t mutually exclusive

There’s still no obvious incentive to get the Government to employ someone, and I fear a scam.

I don’t like “Players Employed by the Government are considered to be Employed by all Players except themselves.”

I don’t think this works with the victory condition of employing everyone in the game.

@lazerchik: It explicitly does work with the victory condition of employing everyone.
